Raw Strawberry-Apple Pie

This pie is so sweet and delicious it’s hard to believe it’s healthy. This is a definite favorite in my circle of friends- even among the non-health enthusiasts and epicureans.

4½ cups of nuts- either walnuts, pecans or a mixture of the two

7 dates

2 apples

1 small basket of strawberries

1½ tbsp. Vanilla

2½ tbsp. Cinnamon

Pie Pan

Place 5 dates and nuts in the food processor and blend until somewhat uniform. Add vanilla, 2 tbsp. cinnamon and salt and blend for 30 more seconds. Press 3/4 of mixture into a pie pan forming the crust. Shred apple in the food processor and set aside in a large mixing bowl. Slice strawberries by hand and add to mixing bowl. Place 2 strawberries, 2 dates and ½ tbsp. cinnamon in the food processor. Blend until smooth. Add the strawberry glaze to the mixing bowl and stir to coat. Pile the fruit mixture into the pie crust, topping it with the remainder of the crust as a "crumble" topping. It can be enjoyed immediately or put into the fridge to firm up a bit.
